and then you've got to love them even MORE

so youngest son comes bounding into my room to announce that he knows what I am going to make him for a halloween costume -- something called 'Naurto'

He says all he needs is an orange cape with blue ties and he will work on the head band.

I have no idea who this is or what they do -- I do know its some anime type thing though because he has been saying 'the neatest thing is its all in Japanese' as he bounded back out of the room.

i cnn't think of Halloween! I've got a sock package to get done .... and a craft exchange to keep organized ... and one person who seems to have fallen off the face of the earth .... sigh .... then there's the start of school I need to worry about -- still no bus schedules mailed out (that will be an argument they are trying to avoid) ... and now he wants me to add a halloween costume on top of it all.

geez.

mother's work is never done.
